They are just too high and too valuable to trade for one player and no other picks.Weston Corbitthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00794523377206180646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1046130621116527798.post-89587915899322749002010-03-19T13:31:01.376-04:002010-03-19T13:31:01.376-04:00This is an intriguing play, but I think it&#39;s u...This is an intriguing play, but I think it&#39;s unlikely. Suh is exactly the player the Lions&#39; defense needs, and if they move out of it I think it&#39;s to move a little bit back. I don&#39;t see them giving up on Okung/Berry/Haden/McClain/whoever just so they can get Edwards (who, by the way, will want a pretty beefy new contract, himself).<br /><br />It&#39;d be interesting to see what the Vikes did with that pick though. Quarterback, perhaps?<br /><br />Peace<br />TyTyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07228238666916939672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1046130621116527798.post-79977287030879051562010-03-19T12:25:27.503-04:002010-03-19T12:25:27.503-04:00If the Lions aren&#39;t particularly enamored with...If the Lions aren&#39;t particularly enamored with the value of any particular player at 1.2, couldn&#39;t they sign a guy with first round tender like a Ray Edwards or an Anthony Hargrove? Sign a young but proven player and pay out the same size or possibly even less of a contract than you would pay Suh at 1.2. <br /><br />As a bonus with the Vikes, you&#39;re sticking a team that&#39;s in-division and close to the cap line(not relevant this year but will be in 2011 and beyond, with a fat rookie contract on a dude who may or may not pan out. <br /><br />Ray Edwards seems like he&#39;d be a good fit to replace Cliff Avril. Sorry Cliff, I like you a lot, but Vandenbosch and Edwards on the ends instantly improves our DE scheme tremendously.Jimnoreply@blogger.com
